Are you talking footy or MAFS?

Be really interesting to see live how Geelong and the Pies deal with 6-6-6

One thing that was really clear last night was Carlton start the 2 wingman as far back as possible then drop back in the the defensive 50 but on the contrary, Richmond started with 6 defenders then as soon as the bounce was done 1 defender (Normally Houli) sprints in to the centre square for the out the back option.

Coaches will certainly have plans to counteract the 6-6-6 but I reckon you need to see the game live to get a full understanding.

Collingwood midfield of Pendlebury, Beams, Sidebottom to benefit greatly from the 6-6-6 and there ability to win centre clearances in the much greater space

Carey at the G tonight. David King at the G tonight. Predicting a punch up live to air at half time. My money on Carey.

Carey only fights women

Did I just see Rhys Shaw in the background as a Collingwood trainer?

Is that genuine or away to get around the no runner rule!

so the news rules in particular the 666 was going to make the game more open and higher scores

4 games so far this weekend and no side has kicked over 100 points in good weather

Was thinking the exact same thing today... On a positive it seems to promote defensive footy. Hope that helps us

Love his what?

In the C7 promo for Friday night's Sydney v Adelaide game it mentions "the stars come out to play" and they show a clip of "Buddy", "Eddie" and "Tex", I thought is "Tex" really a "star" alongside Franklin and Betts?

So, for comparison I thought I'd compare the much maligned Jack Watts career stats to those of Taylor Walker, and they make for interesting reading, certainly closer than I would have guessed :

Walker had played 168 games, Watts 173.

Walker is 193cm, 102kg, Watts 195cm, 90kg, they are "similar" builds, play "similar" roles (albeit Walker has probably spent more time as a deep forward than Watts) so I don't think it's unreasonable to compare the two.

(I'll round up or down)
Average disposals per game :
Walker 13
Watts 16
Average marks per game :
Walker 6
Watts 5
Average goals per game :
Walker 2 ( Just over 2 )
Watts 1 ( Just under 1 )
Average tackles per game :
Walker 2
Watts 2

I thought they were interesting anyway.

Different positions on the ground

May as well compare Max Gawn to Daniel Talia

The modern game certainly is less defined than in the past but there's no doubt the two of them have spent the majority of their careers in the forward half, mostly playing high half forward (CHF if you like) roles.

The Gawn / Talia reference isn't pertinent, IMO.

Yeah, Maxy doesn't own a cat.
